The Best Panini in Toronto
The best panini in Toronto are as different from one another as they are tasty, running the gamut from compact, grilled little packets of flavour to enormous, "there's no way I can eat that in one sitting" sandwiches that impress the eye as well as the tastebuds. But before I get to the lowdown on the top 12: a language lesson.

The Best Soup in Toronto
The best soup in Toronto is the perfect comfort for a cold winter day. And even though the weak light of spring is finally in view, there's still plenty of time to enjoy a bowl of soup in its perfect context - when there's a damp chill in the air outside. Soup might be the most elemental meal of all, a dish so simple and nourishing that it's sometimes treated like medicine. Best of Toronto
The Best Pet Stores in Toronto
The best pet stores in Toronto can be found in almost every neighbourhood in the city. There's no denying Torontonians love their pets, every popular retail block seems to have a handful of specialty boutiques with products and services dedicated to pampering your precious fur baby. As a creepy cat lady in training it comes as no surprise to me that the majority of these shops go to the dogs, as there are plenty of spots to get your pup clipped and coiffed, massaged and photographed by a professional (my cat Nigel assures me he is not interested in any of this!).

The Best Huevos Rancheros in Toronto
The best huevos rancheros in Toronto takes lovers of the Mexican breakfast staple from Parkdale to Leslieville and points in between. But it's still a rare find in the city with most brunch places preferring to stick to more proven offerings like eggs benedict, pancakes and waffles.But done correctly, huevos like this really hit the spot. How can you not love a dish that combines the heartiness of eggs and beans with the hangover-subduing power of spicy salsa? Layer in guacamole, fresh tortillas and perhaps even some corn bread and you have something worth waking up early on the weekends for.

The Best Fries in Toronto
The best fries in Toronto pay homage to the simple potato which was cultivated, worshiped and considered divine by the ancient Incas beginning in 750 BC. It was the belle of the ball for some 18th century French aristocrats and we all know what happened several times in Ireland because of their obsession with it and its refusal to grow. But according to historians it wasn't until sometime in the early 19th century that anyone had even thought of cooking them in fat. Whomever that genius was (the French and Belgians both claim the honour), I thank you. Deeply.

The Best Croissant in Toronto
The best croissant in Toronto is a tasty variation of a recipe perfected in France in the late 17th century. Luckily our city isn't shy on French patisseries, which means chances are a hot, crescent-shaped wonder is often within reach. Done poorly, a croissant is filmy, overly crunchy, stale, and heartbreaking. But done well, there aren't many baked goods more satisfying, or that better reveal the talent of the pastry chef.
